    Its probably more likely that Ed Davis is back than getting 1 of those 3.

    Davis + a strong SF is okay with me though.

    Why are some people enamored with brook lopez?

    He's a foul away from an injury.

    So is Love. I'm not enamored with either. Lopez isn't coming here though.

    For you Bismack fans, Woj just tweeted he's a free agent.

    How is his defense

    We have to be looking at defensive centers

    Whatever we get offensively is extra we need a rim protector i think we'll have enough offense from everyone else

    He averaged 2.9bpg/per 36 minutes and 11.8 rpg/ per 36 minutes last year. However, he also averaged 4.1 pf/per 36 minutes too.

    Not to mention his liability on the offensive end and horrible FT shooting.

    But for 3 million to 5 million dollars, he's not a bad pickup.

    He's nothing but defense and rebounding. A lot of fans are high on him, but I wonder why Charlotte let him go without even a QO... Weird.

    This is how I see it goes down:

    LAC-DAL does a Jordan for Chandler swap. Jordan does a 1+1 deal for the max.

    Love will stay in CLE. Lebron takes a cut for it to work.

    SAS can't make Aldridge work, so he comes to LA for a similar 1+1 max deal. We somehow resign Ed Davis as well.

    I'm gonna throw this out there, look at Biyombo's knees when he moves... See how they bend "sideways"? I hate that. It's not always indicative of high injury risk, but it's not a good thing either. It puts a lot of stress laterally on your knees. If you get Lamarcus, I find a way to dump Nick and then go get enough cash for Davis. We like Davis, we know him, and he can provide the same stuff.

    He's like Reggie Evans but reverse the rebounding and the blocks. He's a good defender.
